Show Mexico March 1, 1972 Sr. Pedro Sanchez Mejorada Director of Exploration Industrias Penoles, S. A. Monte Tauro 320 Mexico 10, D. F. Mexico Dear Sr. Sanchez Mejorada: While attending the Society of Economic Geologists' luncheon last Thursday, you were kind enough to mention a meeting to be held somewhere in Mexico during the month of May. I should like very much to attend this geologic meeting plus field trips to copper properties or mines. Would you be kind enough to send me appropriate application forms for the meeting and field trips; also, of course, I will need a hotel reservation. I believe that we first met in Washington, D. C. last year on the occasion of the G.S.A. in front of the Sheraton-Park Hotel. With kind regards. Yours sincerely, Weston Bourret Vice President WB:lr |
